3. al Jazeera is 100 times more honest and professional than CNN.
   
they don't push corporate bilge, or popular entertainment masquerading as "news".

Americans can watch al Jazeera in English on the Internet easily enough.

Uh huh!

4. It's not black out if you have internet
   
Their online feed works fine for those with broadband.

Still, it would be great if they were in everyone's cable lineup.

Not to worry, PBS shows highlights every day!

6. I wouldn't exactly refer to it as a blackout, that makes it
   
sound like the government has a hand in it (which it doesn't). Here in the Detroit area ,on most cable providers, you can get Al Jazeera Arabic if you choose to pay extra for it.

Say it ain't so! Ya mean everyone can get it  if they pay for it? Them's fightin' words at the DUmp!
